Innova-2 is available in multiple configurations, either open for
customers’ specific applications or pre-programmed for security
applications with encryption acceleration such as IPsec, TLS/SSL and
more. For security applications, Innova-2 delivers 6X higher performance
while reducing total cost of ownership by 10X when compared to
alternative options. For Cloud infrastructures, Innova-2 enables SDN and
virtualized acceleration and offloads. Deep learning training and
inferencing applications will be able to achieve higher performance and
better system utilization by offloading algorithms into Innova-2 FPGA
and the ConnectX® acceleration engines.

Innova-2 is based on an efficient combination of the state-of-the-art
ConnectX-5 25/40/50/100Gb/s Ethernet and InfiniBand network adapter with
Xilinx® UltraScale™ FPGA accelerator. Innova-2 adapters
deliver best-of-breed network and storage capabilities as well as
hardware offloads to CPU-intensive applications.

“The Innova-2 product line brings new levels of acceleration to Mellanox
intelligent interconnect solutions,” said Gilad Shainer vice president
of Marketing, Mellanox Technologies. “We are pleased to equip our
customers with new capabilities to develop their own innovative ideas,
whether related to security, big-data analytics, deep learning training
and inferencing, cloud and other applications. The solution allows our
customers to achieve unprecedented performance and flexibility for the
most demanding market needs.”
